Gpu Benchmarking

[ajones58]

so today i decided to benchmark my pc for the first time. i have my gpu overclocked to 954mhz and i have yet to overclock my cpu but anyways i used evga's benchmarking software and i got a score of 14610 with 243 fps and the temp maxed out at 72c. is that good?

my rig is:
Fx-8150
GTX 560
16gb ddr3 ram

here the log it gave me:

I don't know anything about the evga benchtest, but I would recommend 3DMark as a good standard. I think most people use that. It makes comparing figures easier.

Most people use 3DMark to test their computer. It gives a better standard to compare to.
